We have 26 but it is mostly up and down. If you flattened it out, it would be a lot more LOL.

We have 10. 6 to 7 in timber. Working on picking up an adjoining 10 which is also all timber.
The front ~4 acres is house, barn, and pasture. I'd really like to find some pure pasture ground close by.

Five here. Next to State Park land (Farragut State park parcel) so it feels like more.
Would like to have a few SECTIONS if'n I could afford it (I can't). OH well.
